MARSHA AMBROSIUS - CASABLANCO (Official Discussion)
Hellquist:
I find it funny and also a bit sad that most of the people in this thread is saying they want this to fail or it is not going to sell. What about all this BS about supporting artists? All the slobbing about RBX or other artists on this forum, "we need to support the artists and buy their music," but "no one has heard of Marsha." What the fuck is going on? It's a Dr. Dre produced album, the fact he is releasing this tells you he is confident in this. He released Compton for the same reason. If he is not feeling it, he will not release it on his label. This has to be heat if he is dropping it.
Wait until it drops, then we can critique. It's not the 1990s anymore, it's the streaming era. Sales don't mean anything in 2024. As long as she tours for this album, she will make her money. Dr. Dre doesn't need the money, obviously. It's bigger than sales. It's a bigger picture, but I am disappointed in 90% of the responses in this thread.

Lots of good points. Hard to argue sales in a streaming era for sure.
Im guessing this will be a critical success and could be reaping awards and accolades come the season including key grammies. Lets wait and see, only a few more weeks to release.

Marsha has a fanbase outside of the Dr.Dre affliation. She will be alright!!

Does she? I've literally never heard of her before the Dre association. And when I looked up her Wikipedia and such, it seems like she's mostly known for doing backing vocals for other artists, rather than her own music.

If Dre can get over his fear of selling records… and release the vibe of “aint no coming back from gold” … music will be about the artistry. No one doubts his talents, Im sure the album will be a critical success.

In this streaming era, who really cares about numbers? It takes 1500 streams to equal 1 sale, might as well just put the music out and let it do what it do.
